    The hotel and room were fine for a one night stop. The bathroom had a few hairs in the bathtub - the only real complaint regarding the room. The breakfast was not exciting - we always look forward to the signature cinnamon rolls at Holiday Inn Express, and they did not have them. Nor did they have oatmeal, a waffle machine, muffins, toaster area, etc. The breakfast area seemed really bare.

    The glass doors on the shower wouldn't stay closed. So while you were showering you had to hold one hand on the door so it wouldn't slide open and get the floor all wet.

She was on the trauma floor at Kennestone and I would stay with her all day. I had to extend my stay and the staff graciously helped me with that, keeping me in the same room. I will use this hotel again.

    The Breakfast was top notch and our server/staff person was excellent. Everything was delicious, the area was clean, and all items were stocked up, hot and fresh. She was Cheerful, friendly, and seemed to enjoy her work. Very Pleasant experience. I was impressed with the overall cleanliness of the entire hotel and our room. Everything felt fresh. Nothing that can be done about this particular hotel, but the rooms are a little claustrophobic. There is barely enough space to turn around and no place to sit. Another couple of feet in general space of the room would do wonders.

Getting up in the night when you step intom a wet carpet is not for me. The bathroom floor was not cleaned very well. Breakfest potatoes were cold and there was no microwave to heat them.

They didn’t replace the eggs. I had one big problem as they had Fox News on During breakfast. If you want to put on news, it should be ABC NBC, but not Fox News or MS Now. Do you get paid for putting Fox News on????There should be non-political stations on. I took offense to this.

    Wife fell in a freshly mopped elevator with no wet floor sign management handled it terribly only checked in on us later to make sure we didn’t sue they asked how she was I said bruised and very sore, their response was “ glad she’s ok “ I guess I expected a free room at the least not trying to get free things but the gesture at least would be nice. The cleaning lady literally laughed when we told her what happened but I believe that was only because she didn’t speak English and it was a natural response the man cleaning the lobby when we did get off the elevator at the bottom just wanted to assure us he was dry mopping. Want to say my wife is not elderly not obese and was wearing tennis shoes at the time.

    The staff were all nice The hotel is under renovation which wasn’t noted anywhere. Due to this (renovation inside and out) it was VERY noisy at all times. Due to them beating on walls on the other side of our room I was unable to ever get my baby to sleep. There was 0 hot water in the hotel, which I did go to the front desk about but never heard a resolution. After 10 minutes of trying to let the water heat up, it was still ice cold, 15 minutes later you would get Luke warm water at best. The rooms smelled horrible of body odor as did the beds. The beds smelled so bad in fact in the morning you woke up smelling like someone else’s body odor. They also needed a good cleaning overall. Hair and crumbs all over the floor. The ac in the room was VERY noisy all night and due to the property’s location it sounded like you were sleeping in a train station. The pool also was closed which wasn’t noted. Thankfully I was able to get a refund for the nights not stayed and we moved to a different hotel.

    Our stay was a step up from camping and fairly decent. The staff were helpful and prompt. They had plenty to choose from for breakfast which was nice for our group. The bed mattresses were too soft, and the TV had lines in the picture, but had a decent amount of channels to choose from; the paint (for renovation purposes) left a strong unpleasant smell; the one elevator was very slow. All in all, it was mediocre accommodations and not the worst I’ve experienced.

Other than the main lobby area by the hotel entrance, the other common areas were void of accessories, furniture, or pictures. I would not recommend this hotel when there are other options within walking distance.

    We stayed for 4 nights and our room was never fully cleaned. The trash was never emptied the entire time we were there. One time, the beds were made and if we wanted new towels, we had to ask for them. The front desk people did not seem to be able to answer our questions, and in fact, one guy even told us he "doesn't really work here" (even though he was behind the front counter). I was expecting the pool to be open, which is part of the reason I booked the hotel, but the gate was locked. When we asked, no one could tell us whether the pool could be accessed or not. Also, it took 2 days for someone to come and open the safe that was locked by the customers who had our room prior to us. The one positive thing I can say is that the bed was comfortable. Overall, our visit was below average and I would not recommend staying here. Next time, for a little more money, we'll choose a higher quality hotel in the area. I hope this is helpful feedback.

    The room was clean, but worn with patched ceiling, torn shower curtain, stained towels, and uncooperative AC. Post-pandemic, I know many hotels don’t provide daily maid service unless requested, but I’m also used to seeing signs for such. Not the case here. Second day, no extra pillows, so I requested that evening again and was told they don’t keep extra pillows at all. Given the number of other hotels in the immediate area in the same price range, I’ll stay elsewhere next time.

    I stayed at this place in June and only one elevator was working. I went back at the end of July and the same elevator isn't working. Both trips the entire place is 97 degrees in the hallway, elevator, and lobby. The temp in the room was fine and adjustable but miserable outside of the room. The staff isn't the friendliest but isn't rude, just robotic. I had to wait on someone to help me for 6 minutes when I first got there because they were doing something else. At checkout, they requested we put all used towels and wash cloths in the hallway? Just not what you would expect at a Holiday Inn Express.

    The carpet in my room was very dirty. There was spots everywhere during quiet time there was a lot of running in the hallways and loud noises and talking in the hallways during quiet time. The front desk was contacted, and they informed me that they did see the people on the cameras and they went to the person’s room to confront them to let them know that this is quiet time, but the noise continued from 11:30 PM till about 2 AM. I had to go to a different floor to get ice in the middle of the night. The food was horrible. There was no type seasoning and the food was lukewarm. The food service were not welcoming when you walk into the dining area. My overall experience will be a zero out of 10. I will not be back to the hotel nor any other Holiday Inn express.

    Check in was slow, but not necessarily the fault of the staff, there was a large work crew checking in. Again, no issue with that either…except that the work crew came in multiple vehicles…which all parked under the entrance…in the rain…blocking all other check in parties, including an elderly couple with a wheelchair. When situations like this arise, it would be great if the staff stepped up and indicated that it would be helpful for the construction crew to remove their vehicles and personnel from the area so that others can come in.

Then he places us in the corner room by the stairs. We couldn’t sleep at all from the stairs and the loud closing of the door. We saw 4 baby roaches in our bathroom and the shower would not get hot at all and tub wouldn’t plug. Terrible to be such a pretty hotel

    This hotel is an absolute embarrassment to IHG & Holiday Inn in general. There were little roaches in my room. Originally, the staff was kind enough to put us in a new room. However instead of checking the room they just stuck someone else in there BEFORE having pest control come. Upon trying to find a lost item from the “bug room” we were told we could leave or have the cops called if we contacted the new occupants of the “bug room” because it’s “against hotel policy to interact with other guests”. This location has refused to acknowledge concerns & complaints from other guests during our stay as well. We were all shocked & disappointed. One elevator was out of service while the other one’s rear door opened to the basement/laundry while the main door closes you in. This is extremely dangerous & just creepy overall. After being threatened with law enforcement, for what I’m assuming was the staff’s way of stopping us from telling the new room occupants about the bugs, we did not feel comfortable staying at this hotel. So just a word to the wise…if you’re planning to stay at this hotel, reconsider. It’s not worth the headache. If you do decide to stay make sure you bring your camera. They expect you to stay & have a photo shoot with the bugs as they crawl across the wall & ceiling. I, of course, gathered my things as quickly as possible & headed to the lobby. I guess instead of checking for bugs they just made the bed & put another guest in the room. Disgusting & deplorable.
